Overview
Automotive seat manufacturing relies on distributed production lines for leather, foam, and frames, with final assembly done elsewhere. Each subsystem uses different ERP systems (MRP, JIT) from various vendors, leading to fragmentation and poor integration.
Challenges
Manufacturers face high costs for customizing and maintaining supply chain tools. A lack of real-time monitoring and collaboration causes planning inefficiencies and stakeholder misalignment. In uncertain conditions, lean practices underperform, and companies often react instead of planning proactively.
